Sidewalk Chalk Conversation Hearts, 14 Days of Ways to Show Your Kids You Love Them

I wanted to do this yesterday, but the weather didn't cooperate. I drew conversation heart messages on our front walk for the kids to find after school today. I wrote their names in a few of them. This was a simple way to use both words of affirmation and spend quality time with my kids with one easy activity.

My neighbor came out about the time I was drawing my 10th heart and looked at me a little funny. I was reminded of the line from one of the Madagascar movies where the penguins say, "Just smile and wave boys". So I endure a little embarrassment to show my kids love, I can live with that.

Hi! I'm Kelly and my wonderful husband of 14 years and I have a 11 year old boy and boy/girl 7 year old twins. For this blog's purposes Dr. Wonderful is my husband, Little J is our 11 year old son, Juiciness is our 7 year old son, and his twin sister is Sassyfras- who has gone above and beyond to earn her nickname. I hope you will enjoy reading about our days.
